Activity2: Decide on which artist your group is going to talk about.
Sandro Botticelli(1445-1510) was an Italian Renaissance painter. He belonged to the Florentine school and painted a wide range of religious subjects and mythological subjects as well as portraits. One of his most famous works is La Primavera, meaning “Spring”. It is a large panel painting that shows a group of figures from classical mythology in a garden. Its meaning is not completely clear. It was given the name later by an art critic, not by Botticelli himself.It is believed to have been a commission by the very wealthy Medici family. It is often paired with his other panel painting,The Birth ofVenus, and they are two of the most famous Renaissance paintings in the world.
Auguste Rodin(1840-1917) was a French sculptor. He had natural talent, but his style was considered controversial during his life. However, he has since become recognised as the father of modern sculpture and his name is widely known even outside the world of fine art.
His most famous sculpture was originally called Le Poète (The Poet), but is now known as Le Penseur (The Thinker). It is made from bronze and shows a naked man sitting, resting his elbow on his knee and head on his hand, deep in thought. It was made as part of a larger sculpture for an entrance called The Gates of Hell, based on Dante's book, The Divine Comedy.
Qi Baishi(1864-1957)is an influential Chinese painter from Anhui Province.He worked as a carpenter in his early years and gradually became a Chinese painting master through hard work. He was well known in painting shrimps in a concise and vivid way.
